OUR WORK

Commissions

Each commission begins with a conversation — about the institution's history, its heraldry, and the significance of the occasion being marked. No two pieces are alike, and none are made speculatively. Every ring is produced to a specific brief, for a specific institution, at a specific moment in its history.

FIRST TIER

Platinum

Platinum 950 · Champlevé enamel

Reserved for lifetime honorary members and officers of the highest distinction. Individually commissioned, individually engraved. The most permanent form of institutional recognition.

SECOND TIER

Gold

18-carat gold · Champlevé enamel

For flag officers, commodores, and senior members. The club burgee rendered in hot enamel against polished gold — a piece designed to endure a century and more.

THIRD TIER

Silver

Sterling silver · Champlevé enamel

For the broader membership — a signet of genuine quality that carries the full heraldic programme of the institution, at a range accessible to all.
